Memoquin
Memoquin is an anti-amyloid and anti-oxidant multi-target-directed ligand. Memoquin is an orally active inhibitor of BACE-1 and AChE with IC50 values of 108 and 1.55 nM, respectively. Memoquin is a cognitive enhancer that prevents the Aβ-induced neurotoxicity mediated by oxidative stress. Memoquin can be used for the research of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

-
Dosage:15 mg/kg
-
Administration:Oral administration; 15 mg/kg, daily for 2, 4, and 6 days before behavioral testing
-
Result:Weekly alleviated the insult induced by Aβ1-42 for 2-4 days treatment and fully rescued with a 6-day treatment.
